Smash up Of Some Freight Cars on the
Montana Union.

Sm88u up VI SUMO F61Sut NAAS Vm ING

Yesterday morning q freight train OF
thirty-eight cars. loaded with coal and ore,
for the Anaconda Smelter, pulled out Of
Silver Bow. When they were a little dis
lance from Stuart the engine and first if
teen ears cut loose for the purpose OF run
ming ahead. SO hat the rear portion OF the
train could be turned of on the side track,
and thus save time in switching. The train
had to be divided as the grade from Stuart
up is too heavy for the pulling of heavy
trains. The engine ran over the switch all
right. The cars were following when the
switch became displaced. The last five of
the cars that were with the engine were de-
rallied and the forward train
was stopped. The remaining twenty
three cars were coming down behind
with great momentum, and all efforts to
stop them were in vain. They struck the
derailed cars with tremendous violence,
and coal and ore were scattered all oyer
the surrounding country. Fortunately
the accident was not so sudden as railroad
accidents usually are, and all the train
men had time to get out OF the way. The
freight was in charge OF Conductor Hage-
He reports that ten OF the freight
cars are badly wrecked. Some tall rustling
was done to clear away the wreck, and the
morning train was only delayed about an
hour. All following Montana Union trains
rame in on time.

Murrin Talks.

j.. T.. Murrin was in Butte yesterday and
made a talk to a reporter. He is the Sec
ton foreman at Buxton who beat his wife
last Sunday morning and threw her out
into the snow. and was fined $40 and costs
for doing it. Murrin then denied that the
woman vas his wife, but yesterday he said
that she was, and attributes all his acts
to a violent passion that was aroused at
his wife's scolding. He was anxious to
make up again and the reunited pair went
back to Buxton last night, and in the
will not bring their domestic rows
before the cold and cruel gaze of the
public,

In view OF the high price OF hay in Mon
tana and the difficulty which stockmen are
experiencing in wintering their cattle the
Union Pae fc Railroad Company has made
a special rate for the delivery OF hay ia
Montana from outside points. Agents
along the line have been notified that for
thirty days, ending March %, the, CON-
pany will haul hay from any point in Utah
to any point in Montana for 35 cents a
hundred. or 81 per ton, and from Nebraska
points at so cents per hundred, or $40 per
ton. It is thought that many will take ad.
vantage of this rate, as the exceeding scar
city OF bay in this Territory and the uu-
usual price asked have made hay very
high.

Where the Day Begins.

According to the way in which this ar
rangement is now carried out, the first land
that the new day dawns upon is Easter Isl
and, about 230 miles west of the coast of
Chill, South America. That is to say, the I'd
of July breaks here within few hours of the
LIST, having broken on the American coast to
the east, and the two days run on along side-
the Cd in Easter Island and places west, The
list in all places on the American continent.
We may therefore realize this idea-that at
720 O'Clock any morning of our lives in
Great Britain, the next day is commencing
on the world, and is to be found at this lit
tie island in the Pacific ocean, whence in due
course it will travel round to us. But to have
thus the start of the world is not an unmiti-
gated advantage to these islanders. Suppose
one of them sails east TO America, what is
the result? He will find they keep the day
there under different date, and he will have
to reckon one day in his calendar twice over
to put himself right their notions. On the
other hand, if an American crosses from east
to west this wonderful magic line where the
day begins, he will find the dates in this fresh
part of the world are one in advance of him.
and he must needs strike day out of his
calendar to keep up with the times. This
fact was curiousy illustrated in the case of
Magellan, the Portuguese captain, who sailed
around the world from east to west in 1929,
and having crossed the magic line of days
birth" in his wanderngs, his calendar became
of course day in arrear. The sailors were
completely ignorant of this, and finding, on
landing at home, that their Sabbath was fall
ing on Monday, they accused one another of
tampering with the reckoning. 1t was not
for some time that the true explanation was
discovered Chambers Journal

Brussels lace is celebrated all over the
world and we must not fail TO visit one of
the places where this beautiful and costly
lace is made. Here we see Il number of wo-
men, very quiet, very neatly dressed, and in
some cases with wonderfully delicate and soft,
looking hands, although they are all plain
workingwomen. Each is busy iashioning
the delicate pattern Of a piece of lace, and it
is said that each woman has pattern of her
own, which she always makes, and which
perhaps, descended to her from her mother
and grandmother Some of the women are
working on cushions, with pas and bobbins,
and some are using needles and the finest
and most delicate of thread. We are told
that this thread is all made by hand, and it is
SO delicate that it has to be spun in damp
cellars, because in the dry upper air it would
break before it is finished. There are two
women in Brussels who have spent nearly all
their lives spinning in cellars Frank r.
